Located close to Château Fieuzal, the 19th century Château de France overlooks the town of Léognan.
The vineyard has good sun exposure and is located on a Pyrenean gravel rise with a clay-limestone subsoil.
The estate mainly produces red wine, but 3 hectares of white wine varieties were planted in the late 80s.
Purchased by Bernard Thomassin in 1971, Château de France took out a new lease on life after almost half a century of decline.
Elegant and classic, Château de France is very popular abroad, and almost half the production is exported.
Château de France makes both red and dry white wine. In certain years, the quality is close to that of the most prestigious wines from the Pessac-Léognan appellation.
Château de France red in recent successful years such as 2006, 2004 are very good value for money.
